Hi all, I thought I'd put my half hour lunch break to good use by going 'wild' locally. Just as well, I got some crap news later on(possible redundancy). Anyway I managed a few frames(Andy A) . Here is one of them, a Canada Goose taking a bath, the light was harsh(12.50pm), but my trusty 7D handled it admirably. All comments most welcome please.
Regards,
Paul.

nice image Paul like the water droplets maybe a little bit more room on the left would be better
Apart from the water on the back this shot does very little for me Paul. As has been said it is a bit dark and needs a little space to the left (easily rectified) but my main issue is that it just doesn't hold my interest. The water is a dull lifeless brown which (when combined with the colour of the bird and the pov) produces a bit of a boring image.

Hi Paul, the image does seem a bit lifeless for me.

A bit more room on the lefthand side and a little lift in levels will help, on a positive side I like the water running over the birds back.

Really like that line of water over the back but I agree with the other nits.

It looks a bit dark to me and I would have liked a lower POV
